The paper introduces a new framework for predicting grapevine cold hardiness that learns transferable latent representations capturing region-specific variation. By inferring embeddings from cultivar descriptions, growing region text, and limited historical data, the method supports zero‑shot and few‑shot transfer to unseen regions. Experiments across six North American regions show that this approach outperforms existing models, delivering more accurate predictions and better performance in data‑scarce areas.
The paper introduces a dataset‑centric benchmark for deep learning approaches to grape leaf disease classification and detection. It evaluates publicly available datasets on disease categories, annotations, acquisition conditions, and class distributions, and tests representative models across image‑level classification, region‑level classification, and object detection. Results reveal high accuracy on controlled datasets but significant performance drops on heterogeneous, real‑world data, especially in cross‑dataset transfer and object detection tasks.
Accurate yield forecasting at the individual-plant level is critical for precision agriculture and supply-chain planning, yet public datasets capturing both visual growth dynamics and per-plant measurement labels are scarce. In this paper, we introduce a novel, annotated image time-series dataset of 691 sweet pepper plants monitored over two growing seasons, comprising 4837 images with per-plant fruit counts categorized by maturity.
CoAtNet-DeepMoE is a lightweight Convolution‑Attention hybrid architecture that incorporates a DeepSeek Mixture‑of‑Experts to reduce parameters while maintaining high accuracy for tomato disease classification. The model achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on Kaggle and PlantVillage datasets, reporting 99.80% accuracy on Kaggle and 99.83% accuracy on PlantVillage, all with only 2.47 million parameters. The source code will be released on GitHub.
The paper introduces a lightweight deep learning framework that forecasts Brazilian soybean yields using only routine weather data and two simple static inputs (crop year and agro-environmental label). Across 20 seasons, transformer-based models achieved the highest accuracy, outperforming traditional ridge regression and a moving‑average baseline by nearly 48%. Ablation studies show that the static inputs and spatial expansion improve performance without adding complexity, and SHAP analysis highlights the importance of crop year and weather variables in driving yield variations.
The study evaluates crop‑yield forecasting methods for the 2012 Midwestern US drought, comparing non‑deep learning machine learning models with a deep learning model (VITA) using 16 meteorological predictors. It highlights challenges such as distributional dissimilarity between training and test data, spatial and temporal sparsity, and demonstrates that sample weighting and feature selection improve non‑deep learning models but not VITA. The work contrasts deep versus non‑deep learning approaches and shows how modifications can mitigate issues arising from extreme drought conditions.
PlantC2USeg is a deep transfer‑learning framework that uses cross‑scale consistency learning and an information‑restricted decoder to improve plant point cloud segmentation. It achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on Soybean3D and ShapeNet Part, and demonstrates strong few‑shot generalization across species and sensing conditions. The method reduces the need for large annotated datasets and lowers adaptation overhead for new plant species.
